Being guided through life.
Hanging from these strings,
No freedom to call my own.

I知 crying in desperation,
Struggling to break free.
Knowing that if I could,
Be rid of these strings,
I will fall down,
Fall deep below.

But the strings are too thick,
The knife wont cut through.
I will have to carry on,
Being tugged at,
Being tweaked.
禅ill one day,
I値l be set free.

Then I値l be rid of this weight,
I won稚 have to walk upright.
I値l just lie in the dust,
My body can rot,
I値l be my own puppet,
I値l be free from existence.

Long time no read. This was cool.
Just full of a lot of upsetting imagery.

You are right, more than one angle!
Interesting posture...death to being led around.
Great thought process.
